When and How to Plant S,

When and How to Plant Strawberries
Mr.. F. NJ. Brewer is one of the most sue
cessful growers of fruits of Crystal Springs,
Miss, a community largely devoted to hor-
ticultural pursuits, gives the following di-
rections as to planting Strawberries:
Rake the ridges with a steel mandrake be-
fore planting; stretch garden line; set the
plants Is or Is inches apart. Hold the root
in the left hand, the small leaves and stem
even with the upper part of the fist. Cut
the roots off even with the outside of the
closed little finger; this makes the roots in
length just equal to the width of the hand
Open hole in the mellow earth with little
wooden paddle; spread out the roots like a
fan; put them in a hole and press the earth
firmly around them. Don't hurry too much
and do the work well.
Cotton seed as a fertilizer for Strawberries
furnishes fertilizing properties two or three
years in succession. Cotton seed meal will
do in place of cotton seed, at the rate of 300
or 400 pounds to the acre; but they lose their
fertilizing properties much sooner than the
seeds do. Strawberries do not need q large
quantity of ammonia and but little lime.
Potash, acid phosphate and humus in proper
quantities are Needed. Pea vines. furnish
the humus. Barnyard and stable manure
in moderation are good for Strawberries.
No work in strawberry patches is needed
in winter only for November planted straw
berries, then only run bull tongue in water
burrows
Scatter bone meal and ashes broadcast in
winter to give plants an early start. Wood
mould and salt may be added after work
ing. Top dressing may be used after any
blowing and do good. In working straw
berries use turning plows, shovels, half
shovels, bull tongue and Planet Junior cul-
tivator.
Use hoes often in strawberries. Keep up
cultivation into September and October;
cultivate often.
Roots of Strawberries run as deep as the
blowing.
Pea vines plowed in make fine strawber-
ries.
Don't hoe Strawberries deep; bar off five
or six inches from Strawberries; be careful
not to plow deep enough TO disturb the
roots.
Mr.. Brewer sows field peas in the water
furrow in July and August, working them
in with bull tongue and hoe We noticed
them as green as orange leaves-a dark rich
g:oen, no yellow tinge, on the 9th of Sep
TENDER, in burning drought, when sugar
cane and late corn were withered, curled
and badly fired His Strawberries looked
green and stood the drought nearly as well
as clay peas.
Mr.. Brewer has shipped Strawberries as
late as tho 9Th of May and as early as the
2Sth of March

PULPIT AND PLATFORM.
wILLIsToN CHURCH.

The pulpit of Williston church was occu-
pied yesterday morning by President Hyde
of Bowdoin College The sermon was found
ed on Luke xii, O. "For there is nothing
covered that shall not be revealed; neither
hid, that shall not be known"
These words were spoken midway between
two important events in Jesus life; he had
just been dining with the Pharisees, had
turned away from them and was. about to
commence discourse to his disciples. They
came as an encouragement to his followers
and as warning of speedy exposure to the
Pharisees. The holy men rejoiced at the COM
ing yindication of their righteousness-the
wicked trembled at the disclosing of their
sins.
IlBut in application to our own lives and
destinies, what is hid? What is revealed?
What is there that must be revealed? First
mans thoughts are hid. They are not, as
are his outward actions, laid open to the pub
lie gaze. Then the feelings, or our hearts,
are covered. Appearances are all we see
The cruel features of scorn and envy lie hid
den. Our motives, too, we often conceal
We can never know the real sincerity of pur-
pose, the real reason for mans actions.
All these three are for the most part hid
den. If we could know these we should
know the man. These determine what we
are. And these innerthoughts and feelings
and motives are being revealed all the time.
Emerson says, "The world Is full of judg-
ment days" But when and how the final
The Portland daily press., 1887-03-14

Judgment There is undoubtedly much that
is fghrative in the revelation of ST John, yet
of something's we are certain. We snail be
changed in two things First we shall have
the spiritual vision and shall see not
through glass darkly, but face to face"
And second we shall be transparent and
shall be known. Will not this revelation
be a. punishment? Win not shame
and confusion be heaped upon us for our
sins? And in the face Of all this who Is
righteous? Who can look into his own
heart and then up into the face OF God and
say Reveal all these to men,
Yet to this searching presence all must
come. No impurity that can be Sc, covered,
no false feature so yelled that 1t will not be
seen in the pure white light Of heaven. One
may ask how can anyone be sure OF endur-
ing Gods presence, and Of passing the judg-
ment to our souls safety2 Salvation and
that alone will enable us to do this. Here
there Is no room for shame and Hypocrisy
Christ could look boldly into the eyes Of the
Pharisees and say,"Which of you conylnceth
me of sin ?" and they could not answer. He
was one with God. And to you and me he
comes saying, am the right and holy One,
renounce your sins and you shall be made as
pure and white as snow" We are but to
daily strive to be like him and our salvation
is assured. Christ's saving grace will for
give and blot out out transgresslons. And
when we shall see him face to face our dis
cipleship, our honesty of purpose, will be a
glory to have made known.

There was good attendance at the Sun
day morning meeting at the Y. N. C. A.
rooms for young men only. The topic 1.-THE
value Of Resisted Temptations" was well
presented by the leader, Mr.. A. =. WEIGH.
interesting remarks were also made upon
the subject by several Of the brethren. The
time Is fast approaching when all the reli-
aious meetings of the associations through
cut the world, except the boys meetings, will
be for young men only. This is simply re-
turn TO the original plan from which the as
sociations .havo widely departed in recent
years. Wherever the meetings have been
changed from mixed to young men meetings,
better results have invariably followed. The
boys meeting In the afternoon was address
ed by Rev. @. NJ. Howe Of Lewiston and
others. The evening gospel meeting was
conducted by Mr.. Geo. F. French. There
was large attendance. Remarks were
made by Rev. c. G. Sampson of Tilton, N.
H., and by Messrs French, Staples, General
Secretary Winter and others.

BLOCKED IN MARCH.
Hard Times on the ogdensburg and
Maine Central Railroads.

The railroads, since the last great snow
storm, have been having tough experience.
On the Portland q Ogdensburg road, Satur-
day. the Bartlett train had on several en-
gines, and did not reach Bartlett until d.
m. that afternoon, and Fabyan's at 4 D. m.
yesterday afternoon. The road is now clear.
The trains in Saturday were four hours late.
The railroad men say that there is more
snow piled up out along the line of the
Maine Central than after last years great
snow storm, with the exception of at Her.
mon. where last seasons enormous drift is
conspicuous by its absence. These recent
storms have cost the railroads some money.
Conductor John Jewett's train was stuck
in big snow drift half mile from Pitts
field, Friday. AT dinner time, when Mr..
Jewett saw no prospects of getting clear, he
went into Pittsfeld and returned with re-
freshments, consisting of crackers, cheese,
hot coffee, etc., enough for all ON board. The
passengers were greatly pleased with Mr.
Jewett's provision for them.
The Maine Central tracks are now clear in
every direction, but they had hard time on
the main line east and on the Mount Desert
branch Saturday forenoon. The train from
ST. John, which should have been in Bangor
at 6,45 that morning, got stuck between
kingman and Nattawamkeag, and did not
arrive until o'clock in the afternoon. The
train from Bar Harbor met with bad acct
dent about mile and half below Brewer
village. The snow pillow ran upon drift
and fell back upon the engine, breaking the
front part so badly that 1t could not haul the
train. A wrecking train worked there all
the forenoon, and towed the cars into Ban
gor about o'clock in the afternoon.
The farmers attempted to reach the mar
kets Of Lewiston and Auburn Saturday.
Everything was blocked. 1t was impossible
to reach the Auburn cemetery in hack Sat
urday forenoon, without breaking out the
roads. "In ten minutes the sleigh tracks
were out of sight under the blowing snow"
said farmer who drove in Friday afternoon
The freight train to the West ON the Maine
Central railroad was DELAYED near Yarmouth
Junction Friday afternoon. The evening
trains into Lewiston were about half an
hour late. The deep cuts that have been
made before this, through the snow banks
are receptacles for the snow.
The eastern train that was due at lewis
ton at about II o'clock, was delayed in
snow drift at Belgrade. A train was made
up at Lewiston for Portland, and the regular
strain was not waited for. The train from
the east was several hours late.
